The lattest trend has a lot to do with makeup and girls doing art with it, counturing comes from the magazines to reality becoming a daily must-do for today's woman but this year about to end is giving us some clues about the new trend coming, and it reinforces the "love yourself" culture which translates into working with your own natural beauty.

Work on your skin

The most important to have a beautiful skin is to hydrate it constantly to keep it soft and give you glow.

Use natural products to protect it such as Aloe or use products like Nivea or Clean&Clear hydratation line to wash it, then exfoliate your black spots and moisturize.

Source: Instagram

Don't contour unless is needed

Conturing is amazing and it gives you a great look, but is not for everyday or your skin might get damaged by using that amount of make up. Give it a rest and just use a nice cover, blush and lipstick if you want it. This is the basic makeup kit for looking flawless, and for your eyebrows just use a brush.

Source: Pinterest

The perfect lipstick is your own lip color

If you want to look pretty, natural and fresh, start with your lips, lipstick is cute, sexy and fun but you can cause the same effect just with your red, soft and hydratated lips. Put some cacao oil on them everyday before going to bed, in less than a week you'll look like her:

Your hair and nails are great to make you look glowing

Use shampoo once a week and co-wash it 3 times a week with a hydrating cream or natural products such as eggs, aloe and some people even use beer to give it volume; while your nails should be always clean and strong, if you want paint them to make them look cool but not so heavy.

There you have some tips to look natural, less is more so show who you are!

Our skin is what makes us who we are on the outside, and making it look amazing is a must-do because hydrated, soft and healthy skin is just the best!

It's not about pretending you are younger or fighting against aging, it is about having elasticity and a beautiful glow always!

Our skin can get damaged from the sun rays, the type of weather it is exposed to and even what we eat. Here are some useful tips to keep beautiful skin without big efforts:

1. Water: Water is life. Our body is made of 80% water. It's best if you drink a lot of water of fruit juices which give us a plus. Fruits have vitamins that can help our skin. Mila Jovovich says she showers at least twice a day and drink 4 liters of water a day to keep flexibility and glow.

2. Less sun: Sun rays are extremely harmful to your skin. If you love tanning but don't protect your skin you are then, contributing to have moles and spots that in some cases might lead to skin cancer. Also your skin gets dry and loses its elasticity, wrinkles will appear sooner, so do like gorgeous Nicole Kidman. She is always protecting her skin with sunscreen. She also wears sunglasses outside and she says it is important to use natural products like aloe to hydrate it.

3. Sleep at least 8 hour a day: Old advice but certainly true. The body needs to rest and that's why it is very important to sleep a lot because that is how your body renews its energy and repairs the damage, absorbs the nutrients and your skin is fully renewed once you wake up. Beyoncé says this is her big secret for having a perfect shiny skin.

Source: Instagram

4. Natural oils and homemade masks: This tip is also an "oldie but goodie" Using what you have at home to clean, hydrate and keep your skin flawless all the time!

You have no excuses, use olive oil for hands, elbows, knees, and heels. Olive oil has a great potential to help your cells to grow fully renewed. Aloe is a great option to use every day because it has healing properties and it is totally natural. Milk, honey, and sugar are a great combination to exfoliate your body. A big fan of these homemade remedies is Jennifer Lopez, who says her grandmother was the person who taught her to take care of her skin.

Source: Instagram

5. We are what we eat: Your diet has a lot to do with your appearance, food can not only make you look bloated. It also determines how healthy your skin is or not. If you love junk food, remember to equilibrate, but... how? Well, breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so be really careful and eat for example cereal with milk, fruity juice with a tuna sandwich, hazelnuts are great and they are great to give you energy. Pancakes and honey, cranberries, redberries and grapes have natural antioxidants to slow aging. Selena Gomez, Cara DeLevigne and Taylor Swift are big fans of these healthy diets because as they say, your skin is your presentation to the world.

Source: Instagram

6. Don't forget to remove makeup: Hey! This is really important, makeup is amazing. We love makeup and we love tutorials, and we love everything about how makeup makes girls more beautiful than they are, but makeup is not natural. It is not something that comes with skin, so it is good to use it, but alway remove it. That way you let your skin breath. Your pores need oxygen. If you have makeup all over, your skin won't be able to renew, instead it will absorb the properties of your makeup and the results aren't nice. Use a professional remover for this, wash your face with clean water and dry with a soft towel.

Alicia keys has revolutionized the world this year, she decided to go fully natural and is not wearing makeup. She says her skin looks and feel much better. She is very proud that girls are following her on this... Are you willing to try a no makeup day?? Let us know below in the comments.

https://behappylivepink.com/blogs/news/having-a-bad-day-here-is-what-you-need-to-do-to-cheer-you-up2016-11-14T18:14:00-06:002016-11-15T08:29:06-06:00Having a bad day? Here is what you need to do to cheer yourself up!Daniela Benfele

Being positive and cheerful is not always as easy as it seems, many people having a bad day and many people saying "hey! feel better" and you are like? "Really? that's your advice?"

The thing is that its hard just "to feel better" when having different thoughts or being extremely worried and stressed out.

Having a bad day can last even, more than one day, but you need to work hard and create healthy habits that will make your world shine and your mind feel calmed.In this post, we will share with you some good advice for you to feel ok and leave that black cloud in the past:

1. Be on your own:

Being lonely for a while is not that bad, it helps you think, it makes you go deep inside of you and see who you are and what you want, so don't be afraid of taking time just for you and reboot your own self from the root.

2. Be grateful:

Life can be mean sometimes, but you got to remember the good moments, the gift universe had given you and be thankful for that, for your health, for your accomplishments, for your moments of cheers and joy, for your home, your car and even your lipstick. Think about those who have nothing else than themselves, no family nor friends, and even no health or way to afford a decent life. Be always grateful for being here, now and everyday.

3. Remember you cannot control everything:

There are some situations that are not under our control and we can't do anything about it but just wait and let things happen. That's the way you solve it, letting everything flow and being supportive with yourself, don't judge yourself, don't blame yourself for things that are not really your fault.

4. Focus on what is really important:

Follow your path, set your goal and just go for it, anything else is extra and it can be solved, so sit down, think about what you really want and leave the bad moment aside, it will end and you will feel good because you stayed strong with the eyes where you need them to look at.

5. Give yourself a pleasure:

Being positive and working your mind is certainly important but your body is also very important. Schedule a date and go to a spa, do your hair and relax, everything looks better when you are completely relaxed and massaged.

6. Go shopping:

Go alone or with some of your friends, try on some clothes, look for that pair of shoes you've been wanting for months and have a fun day at the mall. This is a really good therapy and you will feel happy immediately.

7. Listen to the Backstreet Boys:

sounds silly? Well, even if you are not 10 years old or not living in the 90's boy bands from our childhood are the best to bring back memories and even make you dance like it is 1999... so go on, listen to Nick Carter or Justin Timberlake way out loud and feel amazing!

8. Call your bae:

Ask for ice cream and chocolate and get in bed to watch Pretty Woman, whatever happens later is up to you!

9. Guilty pleasures are fun:

Yep, this explains itself, do something that usually you don't do... You know it will make you feel a lot better.

Share with us your story, tell us what makes you feel better and let us know if this advice is helpful for you!

But here you'll learn how to love them and how to look like a selfie queen, just like Kim K or any of her sisters...

Source: Instagram

Kim is the expert when we talk about selfies, and we can't deny it. She says that one important detail to take the perfect selfie is light, make sure you have natural illumination or a white napkin that way you'll enlighten what you want to show; Kimmy also loves the duck face, people hate it but let's face it, it does look sexy on her, so try to practice to look sexy instead of crazy.

Source: Instagram

Meet Tess Holliday, she's also great with selfies, one of her tips is not to angle the phone, instead of putting your smartphone above your face put it right in front so that your head won't look big and you can show all you are!

Source: Instagram

Don't be too serious, selfies are great if you look natural and spontaneous, so try to be yourself, play with the camera, do funny faces and have fun. We love how Miley is great with selfies, she looks cute and not afraid of showing her funny side.

Source: Instagram

Filters are great but only if you use the right one, just look L.Gaga is so gorgeous, looks natural, sexy and added "Myfair" to enhance her selfie.

Source: Instagram

You can be cute, just look the right pose and face, like Riri in this lovely selfie, not glamorous, not fancy, simple and natural.

Source: Instagram

Jenny is gorgeous, try her trick, put the sun right behind you and your camera close to your face.

To change perspective just angle your phone above you and the person you are!

Follow these tips and share your selfies with us!

Pink blonde!

It´s maybe the most popular style of these unnatural yet amazingly beautiful hair color pallet and it’s a degraded blonde with the tips ending on pale /rose pink, and it’s the first step for many blondies who were tired of that traditional and boring color and into this crazy world of fun hair color, some famous people who have used the look are Lady Gaga, Cara Delevinge, Nicki Minaj and obviously famous for pink, P!nk.

The granny hair

The platinum pure grey hair is an amazing alternative and it is getting some protagonism in the hash tags realm, doesn’t matter your skin tone, it just looks amazing, it also favors most of the face shape types and the best part of all, if you are not convinced once having this style you can easily revert it to a more traditional blond, some famous demonstrators of this style are Dasha Polanco, Ariana Grande and even Adam Lambert a male singer.

Miss Minty Green

This is a more crazy and fun look, and also kind of more edgy, it tends to favors thin faces and short hairstyles, like pixie, bobs or bangs, this is a more punk rock approach to the style with great results if done properly, you should also combine your hair color with your clothing, being creative your green locks will help you create fun outfits to tell the world how sparkly and crazy fun is to be friends with you. Very important, try to keep the green less saturated and more pastel, too much green can ruin lots of outfit combinations or possibilities, and with that, a lot of the fun. Between the famous people spotted with the style outside of St. Patrick’s day there are: Lauren Conrad, Hillary Duff, Kylie Jenner and Azealia Banks

Purple princess

When red, pink or silver are not an option because of your skin color and face shape but green is too edgy try a more mystical approach, pastel purple can be your niche, experimenting with this color can be really fun, it allows you to look completely different, giving some room to creativity when combining clothes and enhances the sense of freedom and individuality in everybody’s eye, you are an indomitable and mystical beast in a fairytale forest.

Blue & Demin dye

Okay, we have tackled pink, green and silver platinum, now it is time to give a shootout to the blue and Demin style, Blue color and Demin have long been a wardrobe staple, but this season women are wearing it on their head. Just like the color of your favorite jeans, it has limitless potential outfit combinations depending on the shared you are wearing, it goes with everything! Between its famous users there are: Demi Lovato, Gaga the queen of hair color, and Jaime King

All of these colors work wonders for your style and many celebrities have been spotted using them, the challenge is for you to come out with the perfect combination for your skin tone, outfits and overall look, perhaps more lila, fuchsia cyan or lemon yellow, or maybe trying and experimenting with colors can get you to a whole new look and even become a trend, dying your hair is all about the fun, so remember to have fun with your pastel color dyed hair!

https://behappylivepink.com/blogs/news/chokers-are-the-new-celebrity-trend-and-we-love-it2016-09-23T16:52:00-05:002016-09-23T18:06:53-05:00Chokers are the new celebrity trend, and we love it!Daniela BenfeleThe latest fashion shows are bringing 90's back, we have seen how fashion recycles everything, the hipster lifestyle is all about vintage look and retro items, so fashion is becoming a boomerang and that's so awesome.

If you grew up in the 90's you know all about the sparkling jelly for your skin, the flower hair clips, crop tops everywhere, and much more... Well, chokers are back, those amazing necklaces that gave us the look of a fierce cute girl, the usual plastic tangled choker was something you couldn't live without and now is back and better.

We have seen the queens of these fashion trend wearing all kinds of chokers, the Kardashians club are even creating new styles coming from chokers.

Let's start with Kanye's wifey, Kim K.

She has always been controversial, and is known to be a trend starter, the past days we saw her wearing a very special choker, made of blue jeans, it look very grunge and different, but she has been very criticized by haters saying she looks cheap and tacky... what do you think?

Khloé is also a choker-lover, she loves gold and leather and that give us ideas to look super cool and different at the same time.

Kourtney is as sexy as her sisters; she has shown us how much she loves chokers. She combines her style with the versatility of chokers... Lovely!

Then we have the super-hot Kylie Jenner, she as a 90's knows how to rule this choker trend, we have seen her wearing many of them but she definitely loves those with a ribbon or... diamonds, yes, you know, girl's best friends are shiny.

Finally the queen of choker lovers in this family, Kendall Jenner, she can't live without this gorgeous item, you can look for pictures of her wearing chokers and you'll be amazed, from fine golden chokers to those lovely ones you can tie around your neck... She has such a great taste for chokers and her neck is perfect for them.

Source: Pinterest

This new trend has many famous fans, like Cara Delevingne, who demonstrates that chokers can also be formal, and how versatile this accessory can get, pull this off for night/cocktail dresses, just add little sparkles and it will turn into the focus point of the outfit, get modern and add pearls, or vintage with a diamond or Swarovski crystal brooch.

Emma Stone, using sweetheart dazzling a prom choker, a sparkly ray of white diamonds shining in the beautiful pale skin of the neck of the sweetest and most angelical looking face in Hollywood, prove that jewelry chokers are back, white gold diamonds are a must use for clear/white night dresses, the sparkly magic can make your whole outfit stand out giving you a heavenly look.

Rihanna embraces the choker trend, and rocks some old school choker style; a basic black band is an awesome alternative, but the overall look gains power when worn with a silver or shiny brooch and is also a great enhancer for any black clothing outfits.

Beautiful Taylor Swift is also a fan, we have seen her on the red carpet wearing chokers, a golden and shiny choker combined with a formal black dress made her look like a goddess.

Hot Katy Perry is a huge fan of chokers; she likes variety, from a colored band to a gothic style of choker, and looks awesome.

This is all about the 90's coming back and better, remember Alicia Silverstone, Natalie Portman in the great movie "Leo", Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss and almost all 90's girls who love this trend? We have now almost all Hollywood loving it, are you in?

You don’t have to buy expensive cleaning solutions or use any nasty chemicals. The only thing you need has been in your bathroom all this time….it’s toothpaste!

We are cleaning some nameplate necklaces and a big Vivienne Westwood bird necklace. We decided bigger is better and went straight for the largest piece to test out the toothpaste theory.

Here is the easy 5 step process to getting your rings, necklaces and bracelets looking like new again:

Get the things you need; a tube of toothpaste, a soft clean cloth and the tarnished jewelry.

Squeeze a small amount of toothpaste onto a corner of the cloth and gently rub the tarnished area.

You’ll soon see the tarnish lifting and your cloth will become black.

Polish the area with a clean section of cloth until it’s bright and shiny.

Wear your “new” piece of jewelry – and it has the added benefit of smelling gorgeously minty!

Super-easy and takes no time at all. It’s actually quite addictive and you’ll find yourself going through all your jewelry boxes to find your most tarnished pieces!

https://behappylivepink.com/blogs/news/48374533-which-chain-length-is-right-for-you2015-08-24T07:00:00-05:002015-08-24T19:04:11-05:00Which chain length is right for you?Sherri Clark
Nameplate jewelry makes for the perfect personalized gift for a friend or for yourself. If you're purchasing a gold plated necklace, for example, having an attractive nameplate is just one part of the gift equation. You'll also want to purchase a necklace chain that is the right length.

Chains that are too short can feel restrictive, while chains that are too long can cause the necklace to have more movement that can be bothersome.

Neck size is the easiest way to determine what length of necklace is right for you. If your neck is 16 inches in size, then an 18 inch necklace would typically be the first option to consider. Longer necklaces will then place the nameplate lower on the chest based on personal preferences.

Our personalized necklaces come with 5 different chain lengths. This allows us to offer our unique gold plated products as gifts for children, teens, or adults.

14 inches. This size is most suited for younger children.

16/18 inches. These sizes work best for teens. Some young adults may also find this length to be suitable for their needs.

20/22 inches. These larger sizes can be quite long for some individuals, but will fit most adults.

You can also make your gift go viral thanks to the layering options that are provided with our nameplate jewelry. Ordering different nameplates at different chain lengths can provide you with a customized look and our different nameplate options are easy to customize, allowing you to express your personal style or give the perfect gift.

Which chain length is right for you? Use this guide to select the correct length and you'll be able to give the perfect gift today. Shop nameplate necklaces at www.behappylivepink.com.
